I dunno... I know you can terminate 192 concurrent calls (eight T1s) in a dual P4 Dell system, 60 calls is less than 1/3 of that. I realize that this doesn't scale linearly and that it also depends on what you're going to be doing CPU-wise... If you're doing external echo cancellation and limiting your transcoding (stick to ulaw or something "light" on the CPU) I could see sixty concurrent calls on smaller hardware. DTMF detection isn't all that CPU intensive. You do, of course, need to test to know for sure. There are far too many factors to "armchair quarterback" this kind of decision. :-) -A. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
